Veas first time (day 4)

We got up at 6 am today and was out by 6:45 am we decided to have a early look in the caesars palace. All I can say wow what a place we walked though the casino (more open then the IP ) it seemed to have more style (like every other hotel and casino on the strip). We walked though to the forum shops (loved this place and the cork screw stairways and statues here some pictures












( latter on in the Holiday I short a video of the shops I will post on a later date when we came back). We went to A place which was iopen in the forum and had a breakfast forgot to write down the name but we did have chicken and mash for breakfast lol . We came out and decided to walk down to the Down town Vegas sign as I did not think it was that far. O dear Maria was so tied when we got there She sat on a seat had a drink And I said I wanted to find the the pawn shop where the TV show was made But I did not find it I decided that I’ll heard back to Maria and then I world have Another look another day. Maria said she felt a lot better and could we heard to bargain world for some presents which we did we then walked to the The Sahara to catch the mono rail back to the IP which we did. We went back to our room had a brake and a wash then went out again. We walked to the Mirage to have a look at the dolphin and Tiger in closer.

cont

Here a some pics








Which we did we spent about 2 and a half hour. We then decided to catch the Tram from the Mirage to treasure island ( I will add a Video Later )

. We had a look around Maria was looking Tied so I took her back to the room. I said I could not settle so I went out for the 1st time at night for a walk a long the strip. I’ll put some comments at the end of this as I feel it has to be said. I walked a lng the strip as far as the Riviera then back to the Hotel though hannahs back to the Ip I Watched them pplaying black jack for A while spoke to the pit boss then back to the room I was a bed by 12 AM

NOTE

I know what they say what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas but do they have to the sex industry so openly with the leaflets and flyers it seemed you can not walk 5 yards and some one trying to put a leaflet or flyer in your hand. Vegas should stop this Sorry rant over

I've been to the Pawn shop, its on the left hand side as you get to Downtown Vegas, its really busy though, somedays the queue to get in lasts for well over an hr, i got in on my last day just walked straight in.. Big Ricks truck was outside but we never saw any of them in the shop though.
We bought a fridge magnet and the kids some very expensive teddy bears, its fun to look round but much smaller than it looks on tv and well quite grubby and dirty.

As for the porn slappers, they are just trying to earn a living, in 3 trips they've never bothered us, we just keep on walking and dont make eye contact, they are harmless enough .

I dont think they are paid a fortune by any means, i think they are probably all working for the same "Mr Big" but i guess its better than nothing .

Oh, I understand what you mean about the slappers. They left us alone, pretty much, but we had our children with us so I suspect that's why. I guess they might have targeted you more as you were on your own?

Caesars Palace is awesome isn't it? Did you find the ice cream place?

We've been with and without the kids and never been bothered by the porn slappers, i was told if you have kids they dont bother with you anyway, but we found this yr if you just ignore them they dont bother you, we've never had them forcing their cards on to us.
